On this week’s Sports Hub Hockey Show, Billy Jaffe joins Ryan Johnston in-studio for the full 2 hours. The guys talk about the first half of the Bruins season and what to expect with the schedule about to get much busier.

Bob Beers calls in from Montreal to talk about the impact of the bye week, leadership on the team and preview the game against the Habs. And NBC Sports Boston’s Joe Haggerty calls in to discuss the Boston-Montreal rivalry and Claude Julien’s first game against Boston since his firing.

In hour 2, Ryan and Billy talk to Judd Sirott about the first half and whether Charlie McAvoy should be an All-Star. Plus, they compare Bruce Cassidy to Claude, whether Montreal is ready to blow it up and rebuild and if GM Marc Bergevin is going to get fired.

Other topics include: Will Tuukka play all three games vs. Montreal this week? Is Peter Chiarelli on his way out of Edmonton? How will Victor Hedman’s injury impact Tampa Bay? Is Evander Kane done in Buffalo? Is Anthony Duclair going to make a difference for Chicago?
